18 August 2020: Governor Cuomo's Pandemic Leadership Book Gets Publication Date

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo book on Covid-19 response out in October

Governor Andrew Cuomo will receive another boost from the media to try to sell his story of how he handled the coronavirus epidemic in New York state. Unfortunately for him, other, more honest parts of the media recognize he is actively engaged in peddling fiction, as can be seen in the following excerpt that concludes this article:

Cuomo has received some of his strongest criticism for the thousands of virus-related deaths at New York nursing homes. A recent AP investigation found that the state's death toll of nursing home patients, already among the highest in the nation, could be significantly more than reported. Unlike every other state with major outbreaks, only New York explicitly says that it counts just residents who died on nursing home property and not those who were transported to hospitals and died there.

So far, Cuomo's administration has declined to release the number. The governor has called criticism of nursing home deaths politically motivated.

The claims of a man now trying to sell a book.
